British historian Sir Kenneth Clark explores the transition between
the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in the twelfth color movie of
the film-series CIVILISATION, Sunday, March 28 at Carleton College.
Entitled "The Fallacies of Hope," the penultimate film of the
series will be presented in Olin Auditorium at 2:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.
by the Carleton College Arts Program in connection with an arts festival
that began last term.
The pathos of change is the key theme that creator, narrator, and
producer Clark traces through the works and words of contemporary poets,
artists and scientists of the age. He uses emblematic events to depict
shifting political attitudes and human sensibilities. He recalls, for
instance, that,' when Beethoven heard Napoleon had declared himself
Emperor, the composer had to be forcibly restrained from destroying
the manuscript of the Eroica. which he had intended to dedicate to the
democratic Napoleon.
Lord Clark's widely-acclaimed visual biography of Western man
was produced by the British Broadcasting Corporation and recently
presented by Time-Life Films on national television in the United States.
All of the films in the series are open to the public without
charge.
